Do faux locs hurt?

They are protective and fashionable, and they can be styled in so many ways. However, they can cause pain as well. Tight faux locs can occur when you at least expect them. The pain can be unbearable, and many girls regret even doing the locs.

Do faux locs damage your hair?

If your faux locs are too heavy, they can cause tension at the root of your hair, leading to some pretty serious breakage so be sure to work with your hairstylist and decide on a size and length of extensions that won’t break off your natural hair.

Are faux locs hard to take out?

After doing some digging, I discovered that it is quite easy to take them down. You just have to do it properly and not fight with your hair.

Unlike twists or braids, faux locs are wrapped around your hair, so you wouldn’t take them down the same way you would other protective styles.

Are faux locs painful?

Do faux locs hurt? Yes, if they are installed too tightly. When braiding your hair in preparation for faux locs, braiding too tightly is not advised. Faux locs can be quite heavy, and this places extra stress on your roots, causes pain, and can damage your follicles.
